I make a lot of different types of desserts for Passover. I have two that are particularly decadent. This one and a chocolate torte that I make every year. This is by far the easier of the two. You use a piece of matzo to hold it all together. The truth is it really is a pity to only eat them one week a year.

Sprinkling chocolate chips on a hot cake is a great way to make a mock frosting. I do it with cakes all the time. It’s especially fun when you add colorful sprinkles on top of the cake.

Que es mazo ?
gracias
Matzo is a type of bread/cracker that is made from flour and water. For the matzo to be kosher for Passover, the process of making the mazto needs to be done within 18 minutes.
Love these!
